As darkness shrouds ,
the mind dissects the night,
Rummaging through the scattered
hills, valleys, foliage and caverns.
Where stoic eyes lie wide open on pillows
glaring at the unfathomable darkness,
giving company to the glittering
and not yet glittering stars.
Riding on the wings of anticipation,
flipping through distant shores,
I struggle to locate you in various destinations
Of the map etched in my mind
To quietly slip through and find
a remote corner in a lobe of your brain
Or a space in your throbbing heart chambers.
An atmospheric piece that grabs the reader’s attention in its visceral grip.
